How to monitor pa firewall packets rate via snmp ?

Hi Everyone,

I would like to get the pa firewall packets rate via snmp monitor, however I can not find any snmp-mib description about it.

I lookup paloalto networks Enterprise SNMP MIB Files for PANOS 10.0 & 10.1, but no any finding.

Is it possible to get pa firewall packets rate via snmp mib ? or not ?

Thanks.

Regards,

Joy Liu

Thank you for posting question @JoyLiu0331

There is no specific MIB for Packets per Second. The closest one I can think of is either Connections per Second or standard IF-MIB:

ifHCInUcastPkts
.1.3.6.1.2.1.31.1.1.1.7.<ifindex>

ifHCOutUcastPkts
.1.3.6.1.2.1.31.1.1.1.11.<ifindex>

If you have Panorama in your environment, you can get this information from: Panorama > Managed Devices > Health > [Name of the Firewall]

Kind Regards
